Chick-fil-A® will introduce a honey-pepper pimento chicken sandwich at restaurants nationwide commencing August 28th for a limited period. The variation uses the basic Chick-fil-A® sandwich and incorporates a spread of pimento cheese and a drizzle of honey. Pickles are replaced by jalapenos.
Chick-fil-A® has followed a policy of limiting menu offerings to increase efficiency and speed of service. The introduction of the new sandwich reflects expansion of the chain into areas where demographics have different taste preferences. The honey-pepper pimento chicken sandwich has been tested over the past three years in various locations in the Carolinas, although no decision has been made on permanent inclusion in the menu.
